POPULAR YOUNG COUPLE MARRIED
Mr. Faye W: Clarke and Miss Alice Coen Were Married Saturday Evening. Mr. Faye W. Clarke and Miss Alice M. Coen were married at the Christian parsonage Saturday evening by Rev. McDaniel. The wedding was a very quiet one and their many friends did not learn of the fact that they had been married for some time. Mss Nell Meyers was the only one present at the ceremony. The brkle is a popular and attractive young lady and is the daughter of Mrs. Clara Coen, of this city, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. P. W. Clarke, also of Rensselaer, and is a graduate of Purdue university. Both have spent practically all of their lives here and were both graduates of the 1910 class of Rensselaer high school, and it was during their school years that the courtship which resulted in their marriage began. The young couple left Sunday morning via automobile for Conrad, Ind., where Mr. Clark will manage a farm. Mr. Clarke recently returned from New York state, where he had been helping superintend a large rtock farm. He stated on his return that he “did not like it very veil there,” but it seems that he had some other motive in returning to Rensselaer. The Republican extends congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Clarke, and wishes for them a life of happiness and prosperity.
Frank Hill is feeding 800 head of hogs on their Jordan township farm. These were purchased in Chicago, and the last bunch, 500 head, arrived one day last w r eck. While driving them to the farm in the evening one hog was killed by 'a passing automobile, which did not stop, and the identity of the owner of the car is unknown. Mr. Hill paid eleven cents per pound for these feeders r but thinks he can make—money by fattening them and selling at a lower price.
